African-American MS Patients Experience More Rapid B-Cell Repopulation

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a potentially disabling disease of the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system). In MS, the immune system attacks the protective sheath (myelin) that covers nerve fibers and causes communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body. More...

GPS Assay Associated with Long-Term Prostate Cancer Outcomes

Long-term cancer outcomes are an important consideration when deciding between active surveillance (AS) and immediate treatment for newly diagnosed prostate cancer. Multiple prospective AS studies that predominantly include patients at the lowest risk of progression have demonstrated a low risk of distant metastasis (DM) and prostate cancer–specific mortality (PCSM) with extended follow-up. More...

New Genetic Factors Involved in Sudden Unexpected Death in Children

About 10% of deaths in infants and children occur suddenly and have no apparent cause. Sudden Unexpected Death in Pediatrics (SUDP) encompasses several related phenomena, including Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood (SUDC), and Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SUID). More...

Altered Perivascular Fibroblast Activity Precedes ALS Disease Onset

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease of the motor neurons that eventually causes muscular atrophy, paralysis and death. There is currently no cure. The cause of ALS is only understood in the 5% to 10% of patients who have an inherited form of the disease. More...

RNA-Sequencing Predicts Immunotherapy Success in Bladder Cancer

Urothelial carcinoma, also known as transitional cell carcinoma (TCC), is by far the most common type of bladder cancer. Urothelial cells also line other parts of the urinary tract, such as the part of the kidney that connects to the ureter (called the renal pelvis), the ureters, and the urethra. More...

Tissue Counterpart to Monoclonal B-Cell Lymphocytosis Characterized

Monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis (MBL) was initially proposed to recognize patients with a monotypic B cell population identified by peripheral blood (PB) flow cytometry (FC) that did not meet numerical criteria for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). More...

Breast Cancer Histopathology Employs Infrared Spectroscopic Imaging

Digital analysis of cancer specimens using spectroscopic imaging coupled to machine learning is an emerging area that links spatially localized spectral signatures to tissue structure and disease. Breast histopathology, as an example of the broad relevance of these techniques, is critically important for clinical diagnoses. More...
